Bassious Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) Selling my Grand Prix... The Grand Prix was SWR's first foray (following the GT Preamp) into preamp only design and was considered state of the art for its time. 7 segment dot bar display 2 band semi-parametric EQ (Freq select external / Freq vol internal - concentric pots) Switchable high pass filter (Pull-out bass knob for 30 Hz cut) Side chain effects loop Effects blend control Tuner send Stereo headphone amp with separate volume control Balanced XLR record out with ground lift, pad and mute function Unbalanced line out (pre/master) Balanced XLR and 1/4" outs, rack mountable Production Period: 1991 to 2001. Final Retail Price in 2001 was $799.00 Dimensions: 19"W x 1.375"(1U) x 8.875"D, Weight: 5.25 lbs Bought from Electromusic in 2004 for £480 The pre-amp has signs of wear from rack installation The low-mid parametric level control was snapped off, but I still have the knob, if you feel confident at replacing the pot. I've been adjusting the level with a small screwdriver. Comes with original Owner's manual, kettle cord, sealed SWR dust cloth, is in fully working order and has an upgraded vacuum valve, plus the original GT12AX7. The early Marcus Miller sound. Available for collection from KT2 (Kingston), or for posting (+£12) post here or email me at [email="[email protected]"][email protected][/email] if you require further details.
